Motivational strategies, self-regulated learning and metamotivation
Запись воркшопа Christine Muir на конференции SPRINGBOARD ‘26
Описание доклада:
ttention to students’ motivation is a ubiquitous part of classroom life. No teacher training programmes are complete without focus on classroom management and group dynamics, yet this hugely important aspect of teaching in many programmes can sometimes become overshadowed. Many highly useful, practical lists of motivational strategies exist, designed to support both students long and short-term motivation in the classroom, alongside students’ agency and development as self-regulated learners. In this talk, I review key concepts, some common misconceptions, and explore practical implications for teaching drawing from new ideas related to metamotivation.
